"Hiya, alright?"
"Yeah. How're you?"
"Fine, I'm good. You?"
"Yeah, thanks. What're you up to?"
"I'm at work, aren't I."
"Oh right, yeah."
"Did you get those clothes?"
"Yeah. Thanks for sending them."
"No worries."
"I was just about to run out of boxers."
"Mhm."
"Yeah."
"I'll call you later then?"
"Yeah...promise?"
"Yeah."
"I love you."
"I love you too."

Barry Island, Wales
Remus, Lyall, Lily and Poppy all climbed onto the bus. "Hiya gorgeous." Severus smiled at Lily.
"Alright Sev?" Lily nodded before planting a kiss on his lips. Once everyone was seated Severus turned around in his seat.
"Welcome to Sev's coaches. Sev's the name, Bingo's the game. Sit back everybody and enjoy the ride."
"What's Sirius up to tonight?" Lyall asked Remus.
"I dunno. I think he's going out with James and the boys."
"That'll be nice."
"Mhm."

Essex, England
James removed his hands from Sirius' eyes and all the boys cheered. "Wait for it." James motioned to the others and they all turned around. They were wearing the t-shirts from Sirius' stag do only they now had Back from the dead written across them.
"Was this your idea?" Sirius asked James who nodded and high-fived Peter. "It's not very funny."
"It's just a joke."
"So my marriage is a joke now is it?"
"Don't be like that Pads, it's just a bit of fun."
"It's not funny."
"Come on."
"Take them off, all of you."
"What?"
"Seriously, it's not funny, take them off." The boys started to take the shirts off.
"Told you James." Frank said, throwing his shirt at James' head. "Sorry Sirius."

Essex, England
Cheers erupted around the club as the announcement for the foam sounded. Sirius checked his phone before slipping it back into his pocket.
"That's the fifth time you've checked that." Peter pointed out, sliding another drink to Sirius.
"I just miss him so much."
"Is there no way you can just go and live down there?"
"Dunno, what would I do for work?"
"I'd never move to Wales."
"Why?"
"I don't like the accent."
"COME ON YOU BUNCH OF PRICKS, THE FOAM'S COMING!" James bounced over. He took Peter by the hand and dragged him off leaving Sirius stood alone.
"10!...9!...8!...7!...6!...5!...4!...3!...2!...1!" The crowd chanted before running into the foam. Sirius stood watching his friends laughing and smiling. He grabbed his jacket and headed outside to where it was quieter. He clicked Remus' number and held the phone to his ear.
"Sirius?"
"Rem?"
"I can't hear you."
"Remus?" Sirius headed further down the road away from all the noise of the club. "Can you hear me?"
"Yeah."
"Rem, I miss you so much."
"Me too. This is ridiculous."
"I know. I've gotta see you."
"I hate this."
"When can I see you?"
"Whenever you like."
"I love you Remus."
"I love you too Sirius. We're gonna be alright, aren't we?"
"Of course we are."
